A colleague here at GE Research met the news with the typical
"pooh-pooh; April fool" reaction -- until he found out who
the two scientists involved were.... 
He said he has known those guys for 25 years; and they are "rock solid."

I'm inclined to believe them, too.

What REALLY upset me was that the local TV station covered it 
VERY briefly on Friday;  in their "Your Money" segment!
They moaned and groaned and complained that this might "put
thousands of people out of work;" they were more concerned with
maintaining the "status quo" than about freezing in the dark. 
---- techno-illiterates!     I guess I'll switch to PBS.
